In the end, it was a predictable result. Champions League winner Bayern Munich beat Europa League winner Sevilla, 2-1, to win the UEFA Super Cup and further underline its status as the best club in the world. But a winner scored at the end of the first half of extra time by substitute Javi Martinez, who failed to score in 24 matches last season, was not a predictable way for the perennial Bundesliga champion to win it.
Martinez had been on the field only five minutes when he headed in after Bono had parried away a David Alaba shot.
